Commodore 24 Hour Challenge
The Commodore 24 Hour Challenge is a timed endurance event held at Gulf Coast State College. The event offers two formats:
- 48 mile SOLO
- 48 Mile 2 Person Relay
The course is a one mile loop that starts at the college baseball field. Runners travel west, pass through the roundabout to the Military and Veterans Resource Center, follow the right side of the parking lot to Student Union West, then turn left and return down the main parking lot to the baseball stadium. The event is USATF sanctioned.
The format requires participants to complete one mile every 30 minutes for 24 hours. Each mile must both start and finish within its 30 minute segment; missed segment finish times result in disqualification and miles may not be banked. Two person teams use a single bib exchanged between teammates and both teammates run the first and last laps together. Participants must be at least 16 years old.
Participants are advised to bring sufficient food and hydration for 24 hours; additional snacks will be provided at times during the night. Runners are encouraged to set up a pop-up or camping tent on the baseball field. The campus is pet free and animals are not permitted. All registered runners receive a Commodore 24 Hour Challenge shirt and a finisher medal. Awards are presented in overall, masters, and relay categories.
